Chicago's chances in the postseason

The Chicago Bulls, the #1 seed in the East, and lead by PG Derrick Rose have made a run and soared past the Celtics for the #1 seed. But will they have success in the playoffs? Yes they will. From the beginning of the season, I have had Chicago winning the NBA Finals. I am keeping this prediction.
With the useless addition of Carlos Boozer, the Bulls had high expectations at the beginning of the year. They though Carlos Boozer would help a lot, but he has been injured for most of the season. If Carlos could come back in the playoffs, the Bulls would be unstoppable.
Is the Derrick Rose still the best candidate for the MVP. I personally think Dwight Howard, but Derrick Rose will still win.
